Shin splints are painful sensations on the sides of the leg bone caused by muscle or tendon inflammation, usually seen in athletes.
Proper stretching before and after exercising can drastically reduce the occurrence of shin splints. Corrective shoes and/or orthotics can also aid in the prevention of shin splints.
